Majek Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 And next week, i have to go in internext exile to stay away from Muricans and their spoilers for Dark Souls 2 until the damn friday. ;_; Guess i'll also play regional mode for a the first month, to avoid getting invaded by people with 2 days more experience. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Bryy Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 I was playing South Perk until my new cpu fan came. Now I'm off to Fry's to buy screws and a new side 200mm.

Wrath of Dagon Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 GhostofAnakin, on 03 Mar 2014 - 5:44 PM, said: Finished Dishonored. That was a rather short main story. The "twist" was also pretty obvious early on. It wasn't really a case of being surprised it happened, but wondering at what point in the story it would happen. Overall, decent game. But it felt almost more like an expansion pack than a full length game. I'm curious, why do you think it was obvious? "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan
Humanoid Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Well one clue is how early the game would have finished if not for the twist. On the plot direction alone though, I think it was a case of being not really being a twist as such, but just one of two natural paths for the fairly story to take, either way wouldn't shock anyone, there was no real misdirection. A contrast would be DXHR's twist in that there was no twist. The thing that people expected to happen didn't happen, and I was glad for it. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G

teknoman2 Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 a few days ago i finally finished Icewind Dale 2... and i was a bit disapointed by the final battle last week i played Ys and yesterday i finished Ys2. fun game with great OST. now i think i ll look for the rest of the games in the series. now i should get to finishing dark souls that i left at the 4 kings boss fight The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand.

The twist there was the lack of an ambush during that long, slow, elevator ride down that big hole. Why has elegance found so little following?

Noviere Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Just finished playing through Episode 2 of The Walking Dead Season 2. I liked it a lot more the Episode 1, though there were times that I struggled with the plausibility of Clem being an 11 year old. I guess you grow up fast in a zombie apocalypse, but still... Adults are asking her to make decisions on life and death matters. That's not to say I don't like her as a protagonist -- it's quite the opposite. It's just one of those things that nags at me while I'm playing it. Edited March 5, 2014 by Noviere 1

Serrano Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I think it's the better design choice, if everyone treated the player as they should an 11 year old then how much fun would that be? Edited March 5, 2014 by Serrano 2
mkreku Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Ok, so I read that you guys are playing South Park: The Stick of Truth, saw the 8/10 review on Eurogamer and went to Steam to buy it: WTF! What is going on?? Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Raithe Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 It's the joys of the North American Tuesday release vs the European Friday release... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
TheChris92 Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Persona 4 Golden again - One of my favorite RPGs of all time. Gonna play that until I'll can get home and play South Park.
Noviere Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I haven't played E2 yet but I can imagine what you are saying and I would also find that unrealistic. I almost had to suspend my disbelief so that it didn't ruin the authenticity of the story. Which I was able to do, thankfully. I just had to convince myself that having gone through what she has, Clem would grow up quickly. And to be fair, she does a good job of proving her competency to the group in Episode 1. I think it's the better design choice, if everyone treated the player as they should an 11 year old then how much fun would that be? Oh totally. When it was first rumored that Clem was the protagonist of Season 2, I was a little worried that her age would really limit her interactions with other characters and the world, and that the game would suffer for it. This isn't the case at all, thankfully.
Sarex Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Finished South Park tSoT, awesome game. I don't even like south park anymore, but I still had a blast with the game. Hoping for a sequel. 3 "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP
mkreku Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 It's the joys of the North American Tuesday release vs the European Friday release... I know about the 'normal' delay (which is probably the biggest reason people pirate things). But it was listed as being released on March 6 yesterday and today it is listed as an undefined March? Did it get delayed again? Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
ManifestedISO Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Delayed for Austria and Germany, due to "unconstitutional" symbols, but they didn't say anything about the rest of Europe. Maybe it's a sympathy delay, where if one country is delayed, everyone is. All Stop. On Screen.

SadExchange Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Finished South Park tSoT, awesome game. I don't even like south park anymore, but I still had a blast with the game. Hoping for a sequel. How long did it take you to make your way through the game. There's been a lot of conflicting numbers.
